"But in true RE fashion it's not long before trouble finds our heroes," Capcom writes. "The party is crashed, Claire and Moira are knocked unconscious and taken to a mysterious detention center located on an island.

"They soon encounter demented, writhing enemies called Afflicted roaming the halls of this abandoned facility, and have to team up to survive. The real question is, who brought them here? And... why?"

Mysterious. We'll be unravelling the game's opening episode when we go hands on at Tokyo Games Show next week.
